He inspired confidence. (Applause.) By that sort of undefinable sympathy by which we were led to place our trust where trust was deserved, men ti usted him. They trusted in his wisdom, his di scre ti on , an d , above all, in his sincerity. (Applause.) By thus going up each round of the ladder, he attained an elevation which did not make him giddy, and which, at each step, seemed to place him in that position which, by nature, he was best qualified to fill. (Applause.) He believed —and there were many around him who believed—that if Sir G. C. Lewis's life had been sparred, he would have occupied the highest place in this country, and obtained his niche alongside Walpole, Chatltam, Pitt, Peel, and Palinereton. It was not to be so, and regret must always mingle bitter feelings of disappointment with their recollection of his career. He (Sir J uhn Walsh) placed the monument in the custody of the family on the part of the community of Radnor. (Ap plause.) He hoped that the monument would hand down to the latest posterity the record of Sir G. Lewis's name and of their regard and affection. (Applause.) The Earl of CLARENDON, who was very warmly greeted, said he returned his sincere thanks for the invitation with which ho had been honoured, and which enabled him to take part in that deeply interesting ceremony, and to lisle to the speech of the right hon, baronet, which contained a complete biography of the friend whom they all alike la mented, and to the feeling terms in which ho had dedicated to the memory of that friend the beautiful monument that had just been exposed to their view. (Applause.) It was is monument of no ordinary description, whether as re garded its artistic beauty or symmetric proportions, or the noble, generous, and affectionate sentiment that had led to its erection, (Applause.) Such a monument he considered not only as a record of the feelings of those who had the beat opportunities of kowing Sir G, Lewis's worth, but also as an enccuragement to others far and near to follow in his footsteps and to emulate his bright example. (Ap plause,) Such a monument, erected to hi m by his Further particulars may be obtained upon application at he Architect's Office, Guildhall. FERDINAND BRAND, Comptroller. Guildha'l, Nov. 15, 1861. all classes and of every variety of political opinion in that country, honoured his memory and reflected the character of him who, neither in public nor private life, made an enemy nor lost a friend. (Applause.) It was a particular satisfaction to him that the hon. baronet had so completely narrated to them the different phases of their lamented friend's public life, because his (Lord Clarendon's) connection with Sir G. Lewis, in more ways than one, almost unfitted him to speak of him as he deserved, but if there was one high quality by which he was characterised more than by another, it was his love of truth,'and he (Lord Clarendon) should be false to his memory if he said a word that was tinged with exaggeration or stamped even by the prejudice of affectation. (Applause.) He felt that he ran no such risk when he recalled to their memory, from which it could not have faded, from the uni versal response of approval and sympathy which was given by the whole country (aye and by foreign countries also, for among the wise and good abroad their lamented friend held the highest place)—to that speech of Lord Palmerston at Hereford on a similar occasion, when with all the force that truth gave to eloquence he narrated the services Sir G. Lewis had performed to his country, and lamented the loss to the nation and himself of his departed colleague. (Ap plause.) It was a perfect picture, if a picture could be called perfect that had no shadow. But in truth there was no shade to introduce. He (Lord Clarendon) well remembered a re mark made at the time, and the correctness of which im pressed itself on his mind, that the calm judgment and un impassioned reason of Sir G. Lewis protected him from the defects which usually accompanied and often obscured shining merit such as his. (Applause.) It was these high qualities which guided him in the formation of his opinions, which were the result of investigation and reflection, and never of personal or party influence. He could defend, when occasion required it, with a vigour peculiar to him. self, but never with obstinacy.:He was always open to rea son, whether in or out of Parliament, whether in speech or in writing. No one arguing with him was ever offended, or ever omitted to acknowledge that he had contended against a chivalrous opponent by whom no unfair advantage would be taken. Of faculties such as his, applied in all their fulness to public affairs, it was impossible to over estimate the value. The case with which ho despatched business, the lucidity of his judgment, the correctness of his decision, the consideration and courtesy which he exhibited to all those who had official connection with him; in short, his intense desire to do right and do good, which was his view of public duly, made him prominently successful in all the various ()fliers which ho was called upon to fill (Applause.) W leen ho (Lord Clarendon) made use, of that term prominently successful, it was ittelrum hint to intend that which would of all things lie more distasteful to Sir G. Lewis, to institute a comparison between himself and other great and good. men who still remained, and would, he (Lord Clarendon) trusted, never be wanting in this country. (Ap plause.) Ho know he had the support of public opinion when he said that the Sovereign and people of this country were never served with greater efficiency end fidelity than by their lamented friend—(hear)—and yet in the midst of all his arduous duties, up to the latest period of his exis tence, he found time for study, and he (Lord Clarendon) knew of no instance of any man to whom study of the se verest character and of the most abstruse subjects appeared to afford the same genuine pleasure, in fact he was only exercising and indulging a power of acquiring knowledge that in him was perfectly marvellous. His profound scholar ship, his intimate acquaintance with the philosophy and literature of ancient and modern times, hie many published works upon widely different subjects, long ago placed him in the foremost rank of men of letters—but the remarkable thing was that he never worked for honour, and cared not for fame, If he could remove a prevailing error, or eluci date an important fact, if he could furnish information that appeared to bo wanting in politics, philosophy, or science, his ambition was satisfied, though his modesty led him to doubt his success. (Applause.) Erudition such as his, such honesty of purpoEe, suck desire of power to do good, were rarely found in the same man. It was rare indeed, to use the words of the Dean of St. Paul's, to find a man who might have aspired, and who, as the hon. baronet had fairly observed, would have succeeded to the highest dignity in the State, who at the same time would do honour as a Greek professor in the most learned University in Europe. It was as his true character, as the nature and variety of his public services became known, that lac gradually, but without any effort or intention of his own, wound himself round the hearts of his countrymen and obtained their unlimited confidence. (Applause.) It was no exaggeration to say that his death was mourned as a national loss, because every individual in the country felt that ono had been snatched from among them in the fulness of his intellectual power, who could and would further serve his country, and who could be ill spared. The public feeling was faithfully represented in Parliament. On the day the news of his death was received, a distin guished member of the Opposition moved, and the motion! was seconded by the leader of the Opposition, that the house should adjourn in honour to his memory, because they had never had among them so trustworthy, so conciliatory, so conscientious, or so beloved a man as Sir G. Lewis. (Ap plause.) As a statesman, a scholar, a man of commanding ability and unflinching honesty, Sir G. Lewis was known to the country et large; but the country 9 t large could not follow him into private life, and there judge him as ho de served, where he was seen to most advantage. (Hear, hear.) That assembly and that beautiful monument attested un mistakably that the country appreciated the worth and mourned the loss of such a neighbour and such a friend— (applause)—but of what he was in the innermost circle, in the sanctum of domestic life, he (Lord Clarendon) wart per. haps better able than any one present to testify, for during 20 years of the closest fraternal intimacy, every day of which increased his respect and affection for him, he never saw his temper ruffled, never heard him say an unkind word, and never know him miss an opportunity to do a kind act. (Applause.) His unwavering good nature, his keen sense of honour, his power of adapting himself to every character and disposition with which he came in contact, made the youngest child as much at ease with him as the most intel ligent man, and concentrated in him the love of the domestic circle. (Applause.) Of the dreary and irreparable blank that now existed there, he could not permit himself to speak; but in the name of her to whom the hon. baronet had alluded in such feeling terms, of her whose happiness he (Sir G. Lewis) rendoted cloudlestewhose sorrow could only cease with her life, and who would have been present in person as she was in spirit, if her feelings and failing health had permitted—in her name ho (Lord Clarendon) expressed her grateful sense of the kindness which had enabled her brother to take part in the ceremony by which Radnorshire did honour to herself. (Applause.) 'The Bishop of ST. DATED'S said his acquaintance with Sir George Lewis never had been particularly intimate. It dated, however, from a period of between 30 and 40 years ago, and was founded upon their common studies. The precise origin of it was a periodical publication which ho (the Bishop) at the time conducted at Cambridge, and the volumes of which were enriched by many most valuable contributions from the pen of Sir G. Lewis, who had stated in his work on " The Languages of Europe derived from the Latin," that that work was originally intended as a contri bution to that periodical. Tho bond of their acquaintance such as it was, was formed by their fellowship in the studies in which they took a common interest. Ho (the Bishop) looked back, however, to that bond with very great personal pride and satisfaction. Sir G. Lewis was of all men least ambitious of fame or glory. That kind of glory, indeed, which was associated with the roar of cannon and the blare of trumpets was one which he not only did not seek, but which he would have shunned. There was, however, another kind of glory which, though he did not seek it, he most eminently achieved. A definition of true glory, which he would have adopted, said it consisted of three things in general : love, general confidence, and general admiration. No man pro bably was ever more extensively loved ; no man, as they all GUILDHALL, 15th November, 1864.—The COMMITTEE for LETTING the CITY'S LANDS will meet at GUILDHALL, on WEDNESDAY, the 11th De ember next, at One o'clock precisely, to receive PRO POSALS for LEASES of two HOUSES, Nos. 5 and 6, Cross Lancashire-court, New Bond-street; a house.

Lewis's Memorial at New Radnor. -- 0^ - - The Radnorshire memorial to the late Sir G. C. Lewis, Bart., wee inaugurated on Wednesday at New Radnor. The right hon. baronet, besides being much esteemed as a scholar and statesman, wee greatly honoured as a landlord and country gentleman in the county of Radnor and the adjoining districts, with which he was intimately connected. Closely allied with two ancient families (Lewis, of Harpton Court, Radnorshire, and Cornewall, of Moccas Court, Herefordshire), he owned consider able landed property in both counties, and succes sively represented the county of Hereford and the Radnorshire boroughs (which include Radnor, Rhaya der, Knighton, Presteign, Celiallys, and Knuckles) in Parliament. A resolution to erect a substantial monument in Radnorshire to the memorz o he deceased baronet was passed- at a county - meeting , in May, 1863, in compliance with a requisition frona the in habitants, Subscriptions were readily obtained from per sons of all shades of politics; and, as the people of Radnor shire had subscribed towards the statue lately unveiled by the Premier in Hereford, so the residents in Herefordshire contributed towards the memorial just inaugurated. The design was selected by the building committee from 59 that were sent to them, It is mainly of Box ground stone, and is in the Eleanor Cross style. It is 77ft high, by 25ft at the base, is octagonal in form, and divided into three compart ments or stages. On the front of the lower stage is the following inscription : Radnorshire To her most distinguished son, Sir George Cornewall Lewis, Bart. Died 1863. Under the inscription is a good medallion portrait in marble of the late Baronet, by Mr R. Boulton, of Wor cester. The chief stage rises from the one described and in four recesses, divided by eight columns, stand four allegorical figures, of Caen stone, each 61t 6in high, representing Justice, Truth, Oratory, and Literature, under canopies of richly-carved arches and gables. In the compartment above are other columns of red Mansfield stone, around an octagonal shaft, with canopies, arches, and other decorations, and representations of the coats of arms of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. The next stage, which is similarly ornamented, has also four large griffins, hoLt ing the arms of Sir George Lewis, An ornamental spire springs from the last stage, on the top of which is a carved cross with a circle entwined in the centre. It had been intended that the memorial should stand on the top of Castle Hill, close to the town of New Rad nor, an eminence 100 ft. above the level of the highroad. But, in digging the foundation, the remains of the old castle were discovered, including old floors around which were good arched doorways, and windows were moulded in the style of the 13th century, and in some cases pos sessing the old iron stanchion and grating. Principally from a desire to preserve these ancient relies, on account of their historical interest, the site was abandoned, and a much more suitable one was subsequently secured, namely, a triangular spot upon a level in the roadways, at a junction of three roads, one of which is used by the mail coach to Aberystwit h. Advancing towards New Radnor from King ton the memorial is seen to advantage, and from its height, boldness, and richness of detail has a very handsome ap pounce. The architect is Mr Joint Gibbs, Oxford, the design , r of the memorial cross at B y, the memorial to the Prince Consort at Abingdon (which, it is stated, the Queen will inaugurate early in the spring), and the me tuorial toShakepere at Stratford-upon-Avon. Mr Mansfield, builder, Kington, has carried out the architect's plans in an admirable manner. Mr Stephens, of Barnwell, executed the carving. The cost of the memorial is £l,OOO. It had been intended that theßuil ingeommittee, accom panied by the Bailiff and Corporation, who hold office under charters granted by Eliz theth and Ut orge 11. and others, should walk in procession from the Town Hall to the monu ment ; but the extremely unfavourable weather precluded any outdoor demonstration. The proceedings were confined to a tent, which happily resisted the drenching rain and the violent wind that prevailed, The principal residents in the noigbbourho )d, including many ladies, were present. Sir John B. Walsh, Bart, M.P. and lord lieutenant of Radnor shire, presided ; and there were also present the Earl of Clarendon, the Rev. Sir Gilbert and Lady Lewis (flamptc n —the High Sheriff of the c oun t y (M r G. A. Haigh), Mt. Court)—Mr R. G. Price, M . P . f e y th e Radnor boroughs Rev. L. VENABLE S , t h e c h a i rma n of the committee, said they had completed the work, and now handed it over to the groat body of the subscribers represented by Sir J. Walsh. Sir J. WALSh said they h a d me t u pon a very grave and solemn occasion to perform an act that would close the connection between them and the eminent man whom they met to honour and to mourn. (Hear, hear.) He did not mean to infer that by that day's proceedings he would pass from their remembrance. Far otherwise. (Applause.) He (Sir J. Walsh) was quite sure that in these retired districts his name would become a tradition, and that fathers would tell their children some particulars of the great man whose name reflected such lustre upon the country. (Applause.) Mixed with their regrets, he feared that there would always be a feeling of bitter disappointment. They Must all regret that a career so h o nourable during its wh o l e course, an d so b r illi an t towards its close, met with so ab tup t a termination. They must always regret that that career had been left incomplete. It was one of the defects of our thronged community, of our ancient civilisation, that every profession was crowded, that every path was thronged, and that even the greatest merit found its way slowly to the surface. Perhaps there was something in human nature that rendered the active com petitors in this race peculiarly jealous of excellencies of a varied and diversified character, They were jealous of see ing one individual associate different species of success and different orders and descriptions of merit, and there were some who bestowed their suffrages in the first instance grudgingly and distrustfull y diff e rent bases. So in Sir G., u c p . olicl ims Lewis's early wh i f e r upone e s y t e e r d yba d y knew that he was a great and profound classical scholar, acquainted with all the shades and t t h h a at t h aa e n w ti a a s intimately beauties aaddaliaacies of the Greek language—all who knew him were aware that his capacious mind embraced the whole circle of modern literature, both foreign and English. But there wore those who said that these acquirements were admirablethemselves--they were rare in their excellence, they were sufficient a distingui s h any person, and were of a character to enable any t man to occupy with honour and P or the h e ad of a college, b c r u e t d it theyt the e werec ae r n e a t t a a I p t r a o g f e e t a il s o a r r s those qualities which fitted a man to enter into the active pursuits and business of life. A man might be an admirable scholar and might be no man G. C. Lewis was placed o in f b a u s s it i n n n es ti s o . n T w im ni e cn ro m lle o d at on pe , a a n n l d ia S rl ir y tested his abilities as a man of business and of practical knowledge and acquaint ance with affairs. He was placed at the head of the Poor papers, Law, which at that time was not one of those old-esta blished offices where every thin g went on by clockwork, h p clockwork of the mac hi ne w ith undeviating regularity. N o ; this w as a very different ordeal, where a d m i ra bl e and act i ve ole when it was sufficient that the hea d should sign his name to a certain carried number a t e et w olerks n the that he passed though. The Poor Law was at that time something entirely new. He had to create the machinery as well as to apply it. He had to apply new rules to infinitely diversified cases. Ho had constantly to change and to adapt to different circumstances rules and principles which were in themselves perfectly novel, and also very unpopu lar. No one could have performed so difficult a task without possessing the highest administrative ability, and all ac knowledged that the scholar was likewise a great adminiss trator, and were prepared to admit that Sir G. C. Lewis was as equal to deal with the business of life as he was to deal with the literature o f the present or of past ages. (Ap plause.) Still there were cavillers. Perhaps there were those who were anxious to accord the very smallest modi cum of merit, and to receive proof at every stop for everything and to infer nothing, and there were those who might say, " He is an a dmirable scholar, he is a g reat administrator, but it is one thing to administer well the affairs of a department,and it is another to take a part in the national councils, and to be not only an able administrater but a profound and comprehensive statesman When Sir Geo.

(Hear. hear.) No one cer teinly ever enjoyed a more unanimous and unmixed e•-m -fidence in the qualities of his mind and his charade!. No man had left behind him more general admira tion and honour. (Hear, hear.) Those three elements of hie true glory were the sources of their regret.

He would not have had it on a lofty summit, con spicuous indeed, but inaccessible to the common run of men. It stood on a thoroughfare, at a cross way, nod would remind those who came after them that there were two ways at least in life ; and that these who followed that which was trodden by Sir G. Lewis, might not arrive at fame, yet if they followed his steps, and studied his character, though they might be incapable of appreciating his works, they would not fail to arrive at the height of honour and of virtue. (Applause.) Mr VERNON lIARCOURT said there was but one capacity in respect to which ho could add a word to what had been said—it was of the capacity in which Sir Ur, Lewis was capable of acting as a father and a friend. He could speak of what he was to him (Mr Harcourt), who was his child by adoption. 'With all his greatness and learning he was as amiable as a child,cqually to those below him as to those who were on the same level with him. His knowledge, his greatness, and learning were like some clear and abundant fountain by the wayside, to which every traveller, however humble, might go and drink when thirsty, and as often as ho pleased, and always find that the store was accessible, inexhaustible, and fresh. (Hear.) The Rev. Sir GIL➢ERT LEWIS said on that occasion they would excuse him if he made no attempt at a speech, words would fail him at such a time to speak on such topics as would suggest themselves. He thanked the worthy and excellent speakers for the speeches they had made, and thanked all present for the strong sympathy they had shown to the best of brothers, and for all they had done in connection with that beautiful memorial, which, gratifying part the La Ithsiour )n given to hat had beautiful public memorial had been offered to him: He ac cepted it with pride and satisfaction, and with the utmost gratitude; and it would always be his endeavour to protect and sustain it. (Applause.) On the motion of Mr PRICE, a vote of thanks was passed to the Building Committee, and the proceedings ter minated. Naval and Military Intelligence. The Marlborough, 131, screw three-decker, Capt. Charles Fellowes, late the flagship of the Admiral commanding her Majesty's ships in the Mediterranean, was paid out of com mission yesterday at Portsmouth. The ship was in a very cleanly condition in every part, and the appearance of the crew as they passed round the tables to receive their pay was a credit to themselves and their officers. The Marl borough joins the third class steam reserve, but will never again be commissioned for foreign service in her present form as a three decked ship. The Ariel, 9, screw sloop, Commander Chapman, was paid out of commission yesterday morning at Portsmouth. The Ariel has been employed on the Cape of Good Hope station and has made some lucky captures of slave vessels. On Wednesday the paymaster paid on board to the officers and men the prize money due them to that date, viz., £2,680. There yet remains a large balance of prize money to be paid over to the Ariel's crow, which it is calculated will yield a further payment of from £3O to £35 to each able seamen, and to other classes in proportion. The warrant officers' total shares of the prize money will not fall much short of £4OO when all has been paid up, nor that of the petty officers much less than £2OO. The Ariel will join the steam reserve at Portsmouth, but the amount of her defects, with her small tonnage and shallow depth, render it very probable she will be turned over to the breaking-up dock. The Geyser, 6, paddle, Commander Thrupp, sailed from Portsmouth last evening for Devonport, with seamen and marines paid off from tho Marlborough and Ariel. The ordnance transport Inkerman, with ordnance stores on board, from Woolwich, bound for Dublin, anchored at Spithead yesterday afternoon. A message had been re. ceived at the office of the Admiral Commanding-in-Chief at Portsmouth that the Inkerruan had grounded en the shoals off Ch!ehr•ster harbour, and required assistance. The Pigmy, paddle steamer, was immediately despatched in charge of lisivtruutent pilot W. Main (in the absence on leave of Master Commat:der Vine), and succeeded in getting the Inkernma off• the shoals, and atterwarils towed her up to the anchorage at Shithead. The Inkeruien appears to have been coming down Channel, off Bracklesom Bay, with the wind at S.S,W., when it suddenly veered to N.W., and then dropped to a calm. The vessel's anchor was let go, bat it failed to hold the ship, and she eventually tailed on the shoal. There was no sea on at the time. The loiter man lay on the ground, and she is not supposed to have sus tained any material damage. The Glatton, iron-cased floating battery, is being broken up in No. 2 dock of Portsmouth yard. The masts of the screw ►team corvette Jason, 21, Capt. Edward P, B. Von Donop, at Devonport, were removed yesterday. To•-morrow her crew will bo paid off, and she wall be placed in the fourth division of the steam reserve in llamoaze. The repairs of the iron screw steam-ship Achilles, 20, Capt. Edward W. Vansittart, having been completed, she is under orders to be removed from liamosze into Plymouth Sound. The floating steam factory Chasseur, in Chatham harbour, having had her bottom covered with an anti-fouling com position; and also a portion of her hull paid over with Gis borne's mercurial anti-corrosive and anti-fouling mixture, for experimental purposes, is ordered to be removed from Chatham to Sheerness, to be employed in connexion with the steam reserve in the Medway. Ail examination was made yesterday of that portion of the bottom to which the Gis borne composition has been applied, but no accumulation either of vegetable or animal matter was discovered on the plates, while a coating of incipient seaweed had already begun to take possession of the bottom treated with the or dinary anti-fouling composition, The paddlewheel steamer Sheerness, 2, having been fitted with one of the improved Lumley rudders by order of the Admiralty, will resume her station between Chatham and Sheerness, for harbour duty. The reports made to the Ad miralty of the working of the Lumley rudder on board two of the steamers at Chatham to which it has already been applied have been satisfactory, and accordingly their Lord ships have sanctioned the adoption of the invention on board the Sheerness, it being important in a crowded and tortuous harbour as at Chatham for the steersman to have his vessel under complete control. The following caution has been posted by command of the Admiralty in conspicuous positions in the various Government dockyards : " Caution.—Notico is hereby given, by way of caution, 1 that any person discovered taking from any of her Majesty' ships or vessels, without permission or authority, any stores or provisions, however trifling in value, is liable to be pro , scouted either for felony or unlawful possession, Seamen in her Majesty's service committing such offences will in addition to other punishment, be liable to be discharged from her Majesty's service and so lose any pension to which they:may be entitled." A number of mechanics and artisans at Chatham Dock yard have just been superannuated from that establishment by order of the Admiralty, on the new scale of pensions laid down by the Treasury.

Pcrrott, Bert., Mr i"j- Cev?, M.P., Admiral (Jordon, Colonel Alexander Hoerefenr, Adnr.ital W. 11. Hall, (1-H.O F.R.S., Mr IV. If. 114rton, and Mr Richard Ip:wig, ccretary. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read, th.! emnmittee expressed their deep Pyro pa th y for the loss of life during the late fearful hipwrcele off Tynemouth last week; and particularly in refer- , nee to the loss of two gallant men, who unfortuo , nately perished by jumping out of the Tynemoutit lifeboat belonging to the institution. It appeared that the performance of the lifeboat on that distress• ing occasion elicited the admiration of the oldest seamen in the place. The boat was in the act of rescuing the crew of the schooner, when unfortu. nately the expression used by the coxswain, " Como lads, jump on board," was misunderstood by some' of the lifeboat crew, four of whom thereupon jutnperi on board the schooner, believing the lifeboat was going to pieces. This circumstance so completely deprived the remainder of the crew of their presence of mind that they lost control over the boat, and a. heavy sea striking her at the same moment against the ship, all her oars, with the exception of two, wero broken and her side stove in. Nino of thw men, however, stuck to the boat, and with the two, oars and the help of another boat succeeded ia men, e lifeboat htive kit who unhappily - perished from t, two widows and seven orphans. The inetitution. voted £lOO in aid of a local subscription now being made on their behalf. The institution had. also paid the crew of the lifeboat £26 for their gallant exertions on the distressing occasion in ques% tion. The silver medal of the institution and a. copy of its vote on vellum were also presented to Mr Lawrence Byrne, chief officer of the coastguard. at Tynemouth, for his gallant exertions in assisting to save, by means of the rocket apparatus, some of the unfortunate crew and passengers of the ill-fated steamship Stanley on the occasion. The institution. at once:sent down to Tynemouth, on Monday last, a new lifeboat, to replace the disabled self-righting boat, but the local committee decided yesterday (Thursday) on retaining the latter, after being re paired in London. Rewards amounting to £l5O were also granted to the crews of some of the life boats of the institution, for going off and rendering the following important services to shipwrecked. crews during the late fearful gales :—The Biakeney lifeboat saved six men from the French chasW maree Eleanore, of Nantes, and five men from the brig Ferand, of St. Malo. The Tramoro lifeboat took off the crew of five men and ono passenger from the schooner Sarah, of Waterford. The Los. siemouth lifeboat saved six men from a direliet vessel, after several shore boats had attempted in vain to launch through the surf, The Newbiggen. and Berwick lifeboats went out and ronderedimd portant services to twenty-four fishing.boats and their crews, numbering nearly 100 men, who while out fishing were overtaken by fee; ful gales of wind. The New Quay (Cornwall) lifeboat put off and ma. cuod five men from the schooner Heroine, of Mild ford. The Tenby lifeboat took off the crew of three men from the sloop Active, of Carmarthen. The reuarth liftboat went out and assisted to Silva the ship Far West, of Newport (Monmouth), and her crew of twenty-two men, from a very perilone position. The Dungeness lifeboat rescued fifteen men from the berque Louis the Fourteenth of Dune kith. The Yarmouth surf lifeboat put off and gal• lantly saved three of the crew of the barque Sce. Serpent, of South Shields. Toe winterton life• boat took off and brcu;ht safely ashore six men from the brig John, of Hartlepool. The Dundee lifeboat, Miry ILirtley, w nt out in tow of a steam tug, and saved lour men from the schooner David and John of Montrose, making a total of 113 lives saved by the lifeboats of the institution during the recent heavy gales on the coast, many of which gallant services had taken place during a dark mid. night storm. The lifeboats of the institution at Campbeltown, Penarth, Weimer, Rye, Winchelses, Porthduillaen, Southport, Lytham, Scarborough, and Padstow, bad also gone off during the recent gales in reply to signals of distress from various vessels. In some instances the vessels had, by the time the lifeboats arrived alongside, succeeded in getting out of danger, or in weathering perilous points; bat in other oases, unfortunately, the casual ties had been so sudden and so complete that all. vestige of both vessel and crew had disappeared before the lifeboats could possibly reach the scene of the disasters. Payments amounting to £96 10s. were made for those services. The crews of the Weimer, Becton, Tyrells, and Dungeness lifeboats had also assembled in readiness to go off to the succour of the crews of different vessels, For these services the society voted £lB 14s. Rewards amounting to £25 ware also granted to the crews of various shore boats, for their services in saving several shipwrecked crews on the coasts of the United Kingdom during the past month. Alto‘ gether, during the storms of the last two months the lifeboats of the institution and shore boats, to whose crews the society had granted rewards, had happily been the means of rescuing nearly 250 shipwrecked. persons. The silver medal of the institution andi, a copy of its vote on vellum were likewise pre- , seated to Mr J. B. B alkeley, coxswain of the Teignet mouth new lifeboat of the society, in admiration of his long and gallant services in assisting to save in the lifeboat, and by other means, a large num ber of shipwrecked persons. The Controller" General of the Coast Guard submitted to the National Lifeboat Institution a list of about fifty places where it was desirable to place a small handy class of lifeboat, in the absence of lifeboats belong. , ing to the institution. 'The committee decided to give this important question their best consideration. R. B. Mannion, Esq., of Piccadilly, had, on behalf of a friend, presented to the society £3OO to pay for et new lifeboat for Ardmore, Ireland: Miss Wardell had also munificently sent to the institution £320 to defray the cost of a new lifeboat and carriage for Alnmouth, on the coast of Northumberland, in hen of a small boat and carriage now on that station. The committee expressed their sincere regret to learn of the deceasof the late Mr R. Ransome, of Ipswich. He was a warm friend of the lifeboat cause, and had materially assisted in establishing the " Society of Friends" lifeboat at Selsey, on the Sussex coast. Payments amounting to upward of £2,000 were ordered to be made on various lifeboat establishments; and £1,500 of the funded capital of the institution was ordered to be sold to assist in meeting these heavy payments. It was stated that one of the four lifeboats presented by the city of Manchester to the institution, named the Robert Whitworth, had, on its way to its station at Bride lington, been exhibited during the past week at Manchester, Leeds, and Bradford. The sight of the lifeboat had excited the greatest interest in those inland towns. A lifeboat presented to the society by the town of Birmingham had also, en route to its station at Sutton, on the Lincolnshire coast, been exhibited in that town. It was calculated that 100,000 person turned out to witness the lifeboats on these occasions. The first lifeboat given by the commercial travellers to the institution has been forwarded to its station at Piel, on the Lancashire coast. The society had also sent new lifeboats, during the past month, to Hornsea, Yorkshire, and Valentia, on the west coast of Ireland. Messrs. Forrest and Son, the lifeboat builders of the iasti4 tution, stated that they had forwarded to Cronstadt a fi ne sixeoared lifeboat, on the plan of the society, making the sixth lifeboat supplied to the Russian Government, in addition to two furnished to the: Russian Steam Navigation and Trading C?mpiny, The proceedings then terminated.
